We created this blog in order to share memories and stories of our dear friend Ignacio Celedon (aka Fito), who was killed in an attempted robbery early in the morning on Sunday, September 12th in South Berkeley. Fito led an amazing and enthusiastic life, and we invite everyone who knew him to contribute your memories and pictures. You can also find updates here on community meetings and links to news stories about his passing and the ongoing effort to bring his killers to justice.

Fito was from Chile, and since his death his family and his fiancee's family have spent a lot of money on travel back and forth between there and the Bay Area. We've created an opportunity for you to donate in order to help offset some of these costs.

Fito made this mandala from Puerto Octay, Chile in November 2009, saying,  ´¨Here is my Hippie - Mandala made with natural flowers from the south of Chile, coming from my heart..See you later under the Mandalas



39 years, 4 years. We love and remember you today and always, Fito. These mandalas are infinite, and reflect your influence on our lives. Happy Birthday.
